Larry Nance Jr. on a step he needs to happen to get fully comfortable in Josh Hart’s old home (the former teammates swapped places in NOLA/Portland): “It’s getting cozy. He’s still got to get all of his crap out. He still has all of his Villanova stuff I can’t stand to look at.” – 3:14 PM

Here’s Part 2 of my talk with @John Hollinger where we get into:
— Zion Williamson (great timing!)
— How does Jose Alvarado’s emergence affect Devonte’ Graham/Kira Lewis?
— Where do Jaxson Hayes and Larry Nance Jr fit once Zion comes back?

What’s it like getting traded for one of your best friends?
Larry Nance and Josh Hart found out the hard way.
